Chapter 42: Friends
Seeing that he was still on Liu Zhouyue's back, Li Qingxiao hurriedly took off the white silk and stood on the ground, at this time Liu Zhouyue's pretty face was crimson, pulling the corners of her clothes with her hands, not knowing what to say?
Li Qingxiao was just about to speak, when he heard a voice outside, "Liu Zhouyue, there is a road in heaven that you don't go, and there is no door in hell for you to break into, since you are here, you don't have to go." ”
The one who came in was a middle-aged man, around forty years old, a mid-heaven-level cultivator, followed by several martial artists, all of whom had not yet reached the mid-earth-level level.
"General Li, you dare to commit a crime." After Liu Zhouyue saw the person coming clearly, she stood up and said sharply.
"Liu Zhouyue, in normal times, I, Li Ming, am afraid of you, but today, you are already a rebel of the hidden door, and everyone will be punished." Li Ming laughed.
"However, Miss Liu's beauty is one of the few existences in my hidden gate, and although this place is a bit unlucky, but—" Before Li Ming could finish speaking, everyone burst out laughing.
Liu Zhouyue pulled out the long sword from her waist, blocked it in front of Li Qingxiao, and said loudly: "Despicable and shameless, look at the sword." ”
A sword stabbed out, only to hear a crisp sound, and the long sword had been shattered to the ground by Li Ming's sword qi. Liu Zhouyue was swallowed by the sword qi, spit out a mouthful of blood, and never thought that she would fall back into Li Qingxiao's arms.
Feeling the softness of the girl's body, Li Qingxiao swallowed her saliva, hurriedly helped Liu Zhouyue up, put her on the ground, took out a few pastries from the simple bag, handed them to Liu Zhouyue, and said, "After eating these pastries, then use the internal qi to digest it." ”
At this time, Liu Zhouyue was already injured in her body, and when she heard Li Qingxiao's words, she took the pastry and ate it.
"You are Li Qingxiao who broke in from the outside world? Is it Li Qingxiao who killed General Liao? Li Ming asked disdainfully, in his eyes, how could Li Qingxiao be banned by the princess for life and death since he was so powerful, maybe the rumors were wrong.
"I am Li Qingxiao." Li Qingxiao said lightly.
"Today, I, Li Ming, really want to learn about it, but now you are a waste person, beat you, and spread it out to be afraid of people's jokes, haha." Li Ming teased.
Liu Zhouyue devoured the pastry, and quickly meditated to run her internal qi, she had to recover quickly, seek a glimmer of life, and escape with Li Qingxiao. When she ran the internal qi, she found that the internal qi in her body at this time was so strong, much richer than before, could it be that this cake still had the effect of increasing the internal qi?
Several next Sundays had already been run, and although there was still full internal qi in her body that needed to be transformed, considering Li Qingxiao's current situation, she still opened her eyes and stood up.
Li Qingxiao heard Li Ming's words, as well as the ridicule of several martial artists behind him, and just wanted to use his true qi, but he didn't want Liu Zhouyue to block in front of him again, and said: "Li Ming, you know that Brother Li has been banned from life and death, and you still make such a joke, you are really a despicable villain." ”
"Haha, Liu Zhouyue, the princess has already made an order, Liu Zhouyue stole three Qingming pills, rebelled against the hidden door, and the person who saw it was killed on the spot, and then told it." Li Ming said proudly, "I was sent to guard death row before, I was still so reluctant, I knew that there was today, hehe, I should have been happy at that time, brothers, give it to me." ”
After Li Ming finished speaking, several people rushed up and surrounded Li Qingxiao and Liu Zhouyue. Liu Zhouyue's face turned red, and she secretly transported her internal qi to the palm of her hand, and she was extremely nervous, but she still said to Li Qingxiao: "Brother Li, I will drag a few people for a while, you yourself will escape first, and then I will chase you." ”
Li Qingxiao looked at Liu Zhouyue and said, "Why steal Qingming Pill, is it worth it for a person who is bound to die?" ”
"Brother Li is kind to us, I don't allow anyone to kill you." Liu Zhouyue said.
Li Qingxiao finally understands now, it turns out that he is Liu Zhouyue and is still thinking about repaying his kindness, he only has gratitude in his heart, in the face of such a kind and pure heart, how can he bear to let her face all this alone?
Li Ming's shameless laughter was still echoing in the cell, and several martial artists had obscene expressions on their faces, and Liu Zhouyue saw a shining blade light flickering in front of him, and in the blink of an eye, several human heads had rolled to the ground.
Li Qingxiao looked at a few wind blades, faster than before, and more neat than before.
At this time, it was not only Liu Zhouyue who was shocked on the spot, but also Li Ming, who looked at Li Qingxiao blankly, and stammered: "You --- you ------ not human----
Before the words fell, the blade flashed, and a human head was brought up, with gurgling blood, for fear of scaring Liu Zhouyue, Li Qingxiao casually threw out a few fireballs and burned all the corpses.
The action was so fast, there was no time to react, and after a long time, Liu Zhouyue woke up from the shock, looked at Li Qingxiao with an incredible face, and said, "Brother Li, you ------"
"Miss Liu, thank you for risking your life to send me Qingming Pill, so that I can lift the ban and restore my true qi." Li Qingxiao said, he can only say this, he can't say that the Qingming Pill sent by people risking death has no effect, that would be too heart-wrenching.
"Brother Li, in fact, Qingming Pill seems to be able to only solve the toxicity of the Xuanming Pill-------"
Before Liu Zhouyue's words were finished, she was interrupted by Li Qingxiao, "As long as you unlock your eyes, the ban on life and death can be lifted, and my exercises can do it." ”
He was afraid that Liu Zhouyue would break the casserole and ask to the end, so he simply said it directly, and Liu Zhouyue nodded as if he had understood.
The two sat together, Li Qingxiao took out a few more pastries and handed them to Liu Zhouyue, Liu Zhouyue took the peach blossom cake, put it in her space bag, and said with a happy smile: "Such a good thing, leave a few pieces for the princess." The princess has never eaten such a delicious pastry. ”
Hearing Liu Zhouyue's words, Li Qingxiao had a big head, is this Liu Zhouyue really stupid or pretending to be stupid, I didn't hear that General Li just now, Di Xiyan has already treated her as a rebel, and now she is still thinking about Di Xiyan.
seemed to see Li Qingxiao's doubts, Liu Zhouyue glanced at Li Qingxiao, and whispered: "Although I am simpler, but I am not stupid, I must have seen that Brother Li has seen that the princess has been taken away, and I also know the person who took it." ”
"You know?"
Li Qingxiao looked at Liu Zhouyue in shock, his eyes full of doubts.
"Yes, you see."
After Liu Zhouyue finished speaking, she handed Li Qingxiao a message, a bamboo slip, with a line of words written: Zhouyue, run away, I am being taken away, and the person who took the house is called Concubine Dining, my ancestor---
After reading these lines, Li Qingxiao finally understood that this was her and Di Xiyan's unique way of transmitting information.
"Then why did you come to save Emperor Xiyan?"
Li Qingxiao was even more puzzled, since he knew that he had been taken away, why did he come to the rescue?
Liu Zhouyue glanced at Li Qingxiao and said, "First, for the princess, I am unwilling, and second, for stealing the Qingming Pill, this is what I promised you, I must do it." ”
After listening to Liu Zhouyue's words, Li Qingxiao finally understood that Liu Zhouyue was unwilling, and he stole the Qingming Pill to heal himself.
"Why? Aren't you afraid of death? ”
Li Qingxiao still asked the doubts in his heart.
"I'm afraid, but for the sake of my friends, I'd rather die!"
This sentence, which sounded childish and innocent, actually left a trace in Li Qingxiao's heart.
Friend?
It turned out that in her mind, friends were so important, but how did Di Xiyan become her friend, and he didn't seem to be her friend, all the way, she was always taking care of herself.
As if seeing Li Qingxiao's doubts, Liu Zhouyue smiled slightly: "Actually, the princess has never treated me as a handmaid, and I have never treated her as a princess, just a title, we are friends with each other." ”
After Liu Zhouyue finished speaking, her thoughts returned to a night decades ago:
"Zhouyue, listen to me, follow me, your family was beheaded by my emperor's family, you can't die."
Seven or eight-year-old Di Xiyan took Liu Zhouyue's hand and refused to let go.
"Why your imperial family, I don't understand."
Liu Zhouyue cried and shouted.
"Because the emperor family has no choice, it is the Three Soul Messengers who really kill you, it's not good, come on, run."
Di Xiyan pulled Liu Zhouyue with the silver-white moonlight and ran on a small road.
The chasing soldiers are getting closer and closer, and Di Xiyan pushed Liu Zhouyue, "Run, they don't dare to do anything to me, I am the princess of the emperor family." ”
After Liu Zhouyue walked a few miles, she hid in the grass, she wanted to see if it was as Di Xiyan said.
"Who are you?" A big-headed general shouted.
Di Xiyan raised his head, blinked his eyes, and said immaturely: "My name is Liu Zhouyue." ”
Brush!
A sword slashed through Di Xiyan's forehead, and a stream of blood sprayed into the sky, and a slave character was engraved on Di Xiyan's forehead.
"Liunu, report to the slave forest tomorrow."
"Yes, sir."
Di Xiyan wiped the blood on her forehead, and didn't notice Liu Zhouyue, who was lying in the grass not far behind her, who had passed out crying.
Many years later, Liu Zhouyue once asked Di Xiyan why this was the case at the beginning, and the answer was that we were friends.
Since then, the word friend has become a reluctant word and a sacred title in Liu Zhouyue's heart.
"Now, come with me." Li Qingxiao stood up, since Liu Zhouyue already knew everything, there was no need to stay here.
"No, I will accompany the princess until I die!"
Li Qingxiao was completely impressed by Liu Zhouyue's persistence, and he had to re-examine the woman in front of him.
For the enemy, she is as jealous as hatred, even in the face of Liao Nanchong and Li Ming, who are stronger than herself, she is not afraid at all.
For her friends, she treats her sincerely, even if she knows that her friend is being taken away, she has to sacrifice her life to accompany her.
What kind of woman is this, Li Qingxiao is a little unfamiliar, which woman he knows can compare with her?
"Since you consider me a friend, please allow me to accompany you, okay?"
Li Qingxiao was completely moved by Liu Zhouyue's persistence, and he believed that if he encountered difficulties, Liu Zhouyue would definitely sacrifice his life to accompany him.
Such a friend, he Li Qingxiao has made a deal!
